Minishift

Develop Applications Locally in a Containerized OKD Cluster

Minishift is a tool that helps you run OKD locally by launching a single-node OKD cluster inside a virtual machine. With Minishift you can try out OKD or develop with it, day-to-day, on your local machine.

You can run Minishift on the Windows, macOS, and GNU/Linux operating systems. Minishift uses libmachine for provisioning virtual machines, and OKD for running the cluster.
